Fob a " Catechism of Irish Geography and
Topography," we are indebted to the author,
John U.Greene, Esq. It is a concise and yet
complete compendium of the Geography of

should be without a copy. The work is printed
by Wm, Doyle, No. 73 West Third street.

. - Burglars About. The town seems at pres
ent to be full of thieves and burglars, drawn
here, no doubt, by the fact of the reoent
change in the Polioe force. Whenever expe
rienced oflloers retire, or are removed from the
Police,' thieves both from at home and abroad
soon, glean the tidings, and are sealously at
work in their vocation, well' knowing that the
ohauoe of deteotlon by green officers it slight
ladeed.
. Within the past three 91 four weeks, ao less
than five or six burglaries per night have been
oommltted ia this city. , And io only one In
stance hae there been an arrest mad by the
regular polioe and that on only en suspioton.
We hear almost daily, of personal oonfllots with
burglars', by the Jnmates of th houses robbed,
but the complaint is very general that a police
man never a a be found until after the rascals
have mad heir escape.
Fool-Hardiness Rebuked.
We endorse every word of the following
from the New York Times on the subject or
that speoles of mnnia, whioh makes some men
desire to do and others to see something horri
bly daring and unnatural. Our education will
be bettor without that kind of French.
A Foot mn mis Fiat. A being, probably
an ape, but whose keepers call him by the
rather human name of "Monsieur Blondin,"it
is publicly announoed will walk on Thursday
next across the oh asm below Niagara Falls,
upon a rope stretched from bank to bank for
that purpose. The spot selected is half way
between the Suspension Bridge and the Cata
ract, where the onasm is about a thousand feet
wide, and the height above the water at which
the rope is stretched is not far from two hun
dred feet. We believe that the Niagara river
runs at this point between two civilir.ed coun
tries; and that thore are a reasonable number
of reasonably rotpoetable Christian citizens
living within hearing of this outrageous pro
clamation. If we are not mistaken in this
boliof, the gulf between M. Blondin's promise
and his performance, be he man or monkey,
will be considerably wider than the great chasm
of the river Ijself.
Suoh reckless and aimless exposure of life
as is here projeoted is simply horrible, be that
life what it may. Thoughtless people, mean'
Ing no speoial harm, may promise themselves a
sort of excitement in looking at a fellow
creature in deadly poril, and in shuddering
through the momeuts of the indecent exhibi
tion. This coarse sentiment would attract
thousands to see a man cross Niagara on a
rope, as it would draw thorn to see a dog-fight
or a bull-baiting. But the authorities on the
spot owe it to themselves, to the community in
which they live, and to the wholo country, to
kill this thing at onee and decisively. New
York has been suffioiontly disgraced already

If AI. Blondin is really a man, inflamed
with a mad desire of throwing his lifo upon a
tight-rope, let him retire to some secret gargo
of the Himalaya and indulge his morbid pas
sion without shooking the doconcies of human
society. If being a man, he is merely a
mountebank bent on earning tho money of un
reflecting people by this vilo trilling with tho
sanctities of life, let him bo arrested at onoc,
before the noblost scenery ef the New World is
desecrated by a show of which savages might
be ashamed.
Wbathkr Predictions Mr. F. L. Capon,
of Chicago, in a communication to the Press
and Tribune, of that oity, proposes to mako
aocurate predictions of the weather for any
length of time in advance. Having only
prosecuted the subject about three years, how
ever, he does not feel authorized to claim that
he can prediot weather with unorring aocuraey
without a year' additional observation, and
further says:
This course will be regarded as no more
than reasonable and prudent on the part of one
who olainis to have discovered the great fun
damental principles which underlie and con
trol the whole meteorological system or ma
chinery of the globe, by whioh man will bo
enabled easily to predict tho now apparently
caprioious fluctuation of the weather with the
utmost certainty and preoision, for any locality
between the tropics, and for any longlh of time
in advance; and that, ton, iu the same manner
that the astronomer has long been accustomed
to announoe an eclipse. In fact the weather
van no longer be regarded as a matter of proph
ecy, but of soientilio calculation; except, per
haps, until observation and statistics, so eson
tial for the verification of all science, shall be
oome so full and oonolusivo as to leavo little
room for tho exorcise of the judgment whioh,
perhaps, for the present, mu. t coma anmewhut
into play.
It is nnfortuate for some of us tlfut Mr. Ca
pen did not oommence his observations one
year sooner, for bad wo known the state of the
weatner a lew days in advance, we would
have taken our great coat along with us to
Chicago the other day; and might have or
dered a suit of "cool duok" for this "melting
time."
Trial op the Wimans Steamer. A trial
trip of this steamer was mado on Saturday, in
order to test the effect of the lengthening of
the vessel upon her speod. With the machi
nery making seventy revolutions per miuute,
tK . .1 1 . . . 1
"fltuw umuu auuut iwoutv-oue miles per
hour, by measurement, which is highly satis
factory to hor owners, the Messrs. Winans.
The points added to tho stoamer are fourteen
feet in length, inoreasing her length twenty
eight feet beyond the original design. These
points are merely used for experimental pur
poses. They will be taken off when every
thing is ready, and two others, seventeen feet
longer, put permanently in their plaees. The
trip on Saturday showed plainly that the speed
oan be increased in proportion to the length of
the points.
Suppose then the Winans "proportion the
points" to the speed of 1,000 miles an hour!
Gvj:NATioa in thsj Bbitisu Abmy. Orders
have been given for introducing athlotio games
and gymnastio exercises in the British army.
Th idea is derived from the French. The
Zouaves are trained gymnasts, and are as agile
as so many Ravels. Their exploits in soaling
ramparts are almost incredible. Thoy climb
up over each other's backs, making a ladder of
their bodies against tho wall. Tho exeroises
are promotive of health as well as cffielenoy in
the hour of aotion.
W have long been of the opinion that our
Firemen should praotioe daily gymnastios in a
way that would bettor prepare them for their
duties. As a whole, Firomen are a clumBy set.
Live and learn.
Twenty-nine years ago Chicago polled but
thirty-two votes, and the majority of these
were east by Frenoh ' Canadians and half
breeds. From the political history of the town, as
well as by the law of "increase nd multiply,"
w judge the "Frenoh Canadians and half
breeds" are now in the ascendancy, and have
been so from the first.
